Overall Satisfaction with Skillsoft

Skillsoft is used by some to meet learning objectives and/or to fulfill short term learning needs. It is not used by many in the organization at this point in time. It is in consideration to be expanded and integrated in our learning management system offerings. Skillsoft is set to attempt to address the various learning needs to improve the business and our internal operations.
  • Nice quick videos to explain content
  • Quality content
  • Good presentation
  • Ever expanding needs to learn more and different content requires that its catalog of offerings to continue to expand
  • There are some intangible or non-measured improvements we have noticed, primarily in the knowledge of a variety of topics amongst our staff.
Since I do not always directly use the Skillsoft software as frequently as my peers, I am not exactly sure all the specific scenarios where it is or is not best suited or appropriate. Same for the selection process, the software was selected without my involvement, so I am not positive on what was asked or under consideration when selecting the product.

Using Skillsoft

I personally do not have definitive say on whether or not the subscription is to be renewed, but I can imagine a few of the factors outside of what has already been covered to affect our decisions would be cost, review of competitive solutions - including internally created material that may be more closely aligned to our internal needs - and the shifting needs of our organization.
